In our case, that meant funding a required archaeological review and a goshawk goshawk: see hawk. goshawk Any of the more powerful accipiters (hawks in the genus Accipiter), primarily short-winged, forest-dwelling bird catchers. Best known is the northern goshawk, which reaches about 2 ft (60 cm) in length with a 4.3-ft (1. review.

I would have preferred clumping ponderosas with old-growth potential--better for forest health and better for goshawks. But we also had to deal with known and potential archaeological sites. We inherited a history of high-grading, fire suppression, and overgrazing overgrazing see overstocking. that left us with doghair stands, juniper and white fir invasion, and fire ladders around our potential old-growth ponderosas.
